Book Description
"Funny, tender, edgy. I wanted the love story to go on forever."—Joan Johnston, bestselling author of No Longer a Stranger Written in the wonderfully honest, edgy, and hilarious voice she perfected in God-Shaped Hole, Tiffanie DeBartolo shines in a passionate new story of music, love, and sacrifice. Eliza Caelum, a young music journalist, is finally getting her footing in New York when she meets Paul Hudson, a talented songwriter and lead singer of the band Bananafish. They soon realize they share more than a reverence for rock music and plunge headlong into love. When Bananafish is signed by a big corporate label, and Paul is on his way to becoming a major rock star, Eliza's past forces her to make a heartbreaking decision that might be the key to Paul's sudden disappearance. A layered and emotional look into the world of music, this raw summer read will resonate with readers who loved Daisy Jones & the Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid. Praise for Tiffanie DeBartolo's God-Shaped Hole: "From highs to heartbreak, DeBartolo conjures an affair to remember."—People "Honest, raw, and engaging."—Booklist "This generation's Love Story."—Kirkus Reviews

Rock Bottom to Rock Star

Pages : 258

Book Description
Can you remember that one time you got recognized or someone thanked you for your contribution to their life? You were a rock star, even for just one second. This book isn't about a charmed path to success or some untouchable fairy tale that nobody can relate to-this is about going from rock bottom to rock star, something that everybody can relate to. In his first book, Blair shared the brutally honest story of how he went from an at-risk youth, sleeping on a mattress on the floor of a shack, to a self-made multimillionaire by his early twenties. As his story became a national sensation, fans started asking him how they too could become entrepreneurs, take their careers to the next level, and achieve financial freedom. Rock Bottom to Rock Star answers those questions. Blair has battled extreme obstacles: life as a former gang member, balancing a demanding career with single parenthood, building and selling multiple companies, and making and losing tens of millions of dollars (sometimes all in one day). He wants to help others avoid the mistakes he made in the school of hard knocks, so he has compiled his unique advice for going from rock bottom to rock star in whatever field you chose to pursue. Much of his advice is counterintuitive, and definitely not what you would learn in business school. Here's one example: "Don't believe your own hype. The moment you start celebrating, you've left the stage. It wasn't celebration that made you a rock star. It was hard work." If you're serious about making the most of your life and you're ready to become the "rock star next door" instead of just looking up to them, this may be the most rewarding book you'll ever read.

JASMINE Could life suck anymore? Not only did I catch my a-hole ex cheating with my own eyes, but now I'm struggling to pay the rent while I'm stuck in an all-consuming job. When my boss approaches me with the opportunity to photograph international rockstar Kit Jones while he's in town...I refuse. Why? Because- Kit Jones is a womanizer, arrogant and frustratingly handsome. Just the type I swore I'd never fall for. KIT Escaping New York to record a new single in Seaview, was the record labels idea, not mine. Actually, it was more of an ultimatum. I guess it was my own fault, bedding most of Manhattan hasn't exactly cleaned up my image. As fate would have it, Jasmine, the spirited red-head I'd propositioned in the bar, was now the band's photographer. But she doesn't seem to care about my reputation, except as more fuel for her disdain of me. Maybe it's the blistering Australian heat, but she is the fire to my frozen heart. Will she dare to trust me? Or will we both go up in flames? Strap yourself in for this hot-as-hell playboy rockstar and feisty small-town girl romance.
